[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 628502, member: 88961"] Koukla - Your bloods will not necessarily go up, unless you increase your carbs, and even if you did, they may not go up materially. You could try eating more fat, so perhaps up the cheese a it? Go for full fat, rather than skimmed or semi-skimmed milk? You eat a lot of eggs. How do you eat them? Scrambled, omelletes, fried? If scrambled, could you eat one more each time, so instead of scrambling two eggs, scramble three perhaps? And maybe add butter or cream when you scramble them? Those are all solid diabetic options which will increase your calories, without adding carbohydrates. Please do listen to me when I say that if you do not eat enough your body will try to find a way of looking after itself. For me, if I don't eat enough, my bloods go up. I promise you. How many calories are you consuming a day? Your notes should be able to tell you that? Please try eating more calories, without increasing your carbs significantly for a week, and see how it goes? You will be testing, so you will see if things go in the wrong direction. [/QUOTE]
